Block Management Holloway

Holloway 's No 1 Managing agent

Block and Estate Management is about the minutia done well: the role of a Managing Agent is technical, administrative, practical and political. It takes joined up thinking to do what we do well as well as sufficient resource to react to whatever is necessary day-to-day.

As a Managing Agent we know our true business is building relationships with people. Our people are empowered and know that they can make a difference to how people feel about where they live. We call our 'Property Manager's 'Relationship Managers’ to embody our values which are to build relationships, add value, and to take the initiative. We lead the market in transparency and focusing on risk, cash, repairs and place making, usually in that order, and was the first Managing Agent to introduce a ' money back guarantee ’.

Being who we are would be impossible without our passionately committed people, whose qualifications we sponsor and who we support professionally to be the best they can be, as achieving a national training award and our Silver IIP status confirms.

Block Management Overview

Block and Estate Management is about the minutia done well: the role of a Managing Agent is technical, administrative, practical and political. It takes joined up thinking from a multi-disciplined team with one eye on the strategic long term plan and with sufficient resource to react to whatever is necessary day-to-day: the skills that block and estate management spans are: politics, building pathology, finance, legal knowhow and of course customer service too.

As a leading Managing Agent, we are a one-stop-property shop. We understand that our role is sometimes signposting Clients to get expert advice and supporting them to interpret such advice and make decisions. We support and help owners reach out to government and other local services where matters are beyond our day-to-day block management remit.

As a Managing Agent we know our true business is building relationships with people. Our people are empowered and know that they can make a difference to how people feel about where they live. We call our 'Property Manager's 'Relationship Managers' as our focus which is written up in our values is (a) to build relationships, (b) add value, and (c) to take the initiative: to us this means managing relationships. We lead the market in transparency and focusing on risk, cash, repairs and place making, usually in that order, and was the first Managing Agent to introduce a 'money back guarantee'.

We are not shy of hard work and believe our ability to get stuck in and find solutions that sets us apart. We are innovative to the core and committed to implementing good ideas in pursuit of 5* service.

Being who we are would be impossible without our passionately committed people, whose qualifications we sponsor and who we support professionally to be the best they can be, as achieving a national training award and our Silver IIP status confirms.

"We have had a problem with noise from the flat above us in Lady Isle House Ferry Court Cardiff. We contacted a Mr Paul Staniforth who immediately became involved and addressed the situation. We really do appreciate what he has done for us and cannot thank him enough. Once again a big thank you to Mr Staniforth. The noise above was intolerable."

History of Holloway

Holloway is situated to the north of London, in the borough of Islington. It is 3.3 miles from the centre of London. There are different theories about the origins of the area's name. Some believe that it originates from "hollow", which refers to the dip in the road from the cattle that walked along the route to the cattle markets in London. Others believe that it derives from "hallow", and points to the road's significance as part of the pilgrimage route to Walsingham. 
There is evidence around 1000, of the earliest villages of Tollington and Stroud. Interestingly, today these names remain as "Tollington Park" and "Stroud Green". In 1307, the name "The Holloway" referred to the Holloway Road we know today. 
Since the late 17th century, the area has been known as Holloway. In the 18th century, it ceased to have an identity as a separate hamlet. In 1814, St. Mary Magdalene Church was built in Holloway Road; and in 1828, St. John the Evangelist Church, Upper Holloway, was built in Pemberton Gardens.
In 1868, during the reign of Queen Victoria, (r. 1837-1901), Upper Holloway station was opened by the Tottenham and Hampstead Joint Railway. Today, this station is on the Overground. In 1906, during the reign of King Edward VII, (r. 1901-1910), Holloway Road station was opened by the Great Northern, Piccadilly and Brompton Railway. The Underground station we know today, is on the Piccadilly Line. 
In 1852, Holloway Prison was built in Parkhurst Road, originally for mixed inmates. However, from 1902 until its closure in 2016, it was a women-only prison, the UK's major female prison. 
In the early 1900s, Holloway had an extensive building programme, and rapidly became an established shopping centre. The road junction at Nag's Head became important for trolleybus services, until their withdrawal in the 1950s. 
In the late 1930s, the Odeon Cinema was built as the Gaumont. It was severely damaged by a doodlebug during World War II, (1939-1945). In recent years, the cinema was extensively refurbished, and is now a Grade II listed building. It maintains its original impressive foyer and staircase. During the war, Holloway suffered extensive bombing, due to its close proximity to King's Cross station.
Like many other parts of Islington, Holloway is becoming "gentrified", especially in the Hillmarton and Mercers Road/Tavistock Terrace conservation areas. There are luxury building developments taking place over a large area, between the Arsenal stadium development and Caledonian Road. Islington London Borough Council have extensive building projects planned for the Nag's Head area, over the next decade.
